I was a king, a king of dreams.
I was a king, I ruled in not seeing
That nothing's easy, nothing's easy,
And there's always another mountain to climb on.
And I can and I must,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
I was a slave, a slave inside myself.
Forcefully tied to the emptiness within me.
But every living thing, every living thing
Will always aspire and will always flee.
I can too, I must too,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
I'm going through it and out of it,
I want nothing and don't need much.
Walking on water, walking on water,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
And it feels good to me, it feels right
To quit looking for a solution.
Walking on water, walking on water,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
The king is dead, long live the new king.
The slave runs far away until he's out of sight.
But nothing's easy, nothing's easy,
There's always another mountain to climb on.
And I can and I must,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
I've been all that and my hands are empty,
The whole is world is to walk on water.
It only starts here, only starts here-
Everything that's worth fighting for.
And I can and I must,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
I'm going through it and out of it,
I want nothing and don't need much.
Walking on water, walking on water,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
And it feels good to me, it feels right
To quit looking for a solution.
Walking on water, walking on water,
I'm alive now, I'm alive now.
